TWO-DIMENSIONAL IMAGING SYSTEM, DEVICE COMPRISING AN IMAGING SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR CALCULATING A PARAMETER FOR A TWO-DIMENSIONAL RANGE.

摘要

The invention provides an imaging system (10) comprising -a beam splitting unit (14, 40) for splitting a beam of incident light from a sample (12) into at least a first channel (C1) and a second channel (C2); -at least one 2D image sampling unit (18) arranged to receive light from the first channel and to output a 2D image; and -at least one spectral sampling unit (20, 22) arranged to receive light from the second channel and to sample a spectral response for each point along a scan line (30, 51, 52, 61, 62, 74, 75) in the 2D image. The invention also provides a method for calculating a parameter (P) for a two- dimensional, 2D, range.
